Question

What is the volume of the square pyramid shown below?

Answer 1

The volume of a square pyramid is given by the following formula:

$V = a^{2} \frac{h}{3}$

a is the side length of the square base, and h is the height of the pyramid.

Plug in your known values into the formula:

$a = 9, h = 5$
$V = 9^{2} \times \frac{5}{3}$
$V = 81 \times \frac{5}{3}$
$V = 135$

The volume of this square pyramid is 135 centimeters cubed.

Answer 2

The answer is 135 cm cubed.

The equation is L * W * (H/3) = volume.
